[QUOTE="GoldFinger1969, post: 5093940, member: 73489"]I bet the ratio of upgrades to downgrades is far higher. The problem with this whole re-submission thing is you can send in a coin 20 times and 19 times it was (correctly) graded like it was originally...then on the 20th time, you catch a more liberal grader on a good day and voila !!! You go up a full point or a key "+" or "*" and the coin now costs alot more.
